week 2
[One week down and (if the Alchemist's promise is to be believed) just three more to go. In the past week royalty has been bullied, explicitly non-Satanic chairs were ordered and you began the pact-bonding process with your new proprietor of mercantile wares, ✨Garfield the Deals Warlock✨.
All in all, a surprisingly good week despite the kidnapping and looming threat of death. We'll see how long that lasts.
Sunday | Monday | Tuesday | Wednesday | Thursday
✨WEEKLY DEALS✨
1. The Cloak of Duplication - An ancient vampiric artifact, when worn it changes your appearance and voice to perfectly mimic another individual of your choosing. (You still have to sell the act, though.) [5 coins] SOLD
2. The Battle Axe of Hatred - A sick as hell electric guitar with an energy that feels like it is powered by the screaming of an ancient and evil lord- or at least once was. It has a signature on the body that simply says "Ron" and looks like it might have been written in blood. [5 coins]
3. The Jable - Put down your keys and stay a while. [2 coins]
✨LEFTOVER STOCK AT 50% MARK-UP✨
1. The Tingler - The whole hand tingles from wearing this ring, as if more blood rushes through the area. [2 coins]
2. Christine Jr. - A tiny red convertible. It's powered by pedals like a bicycle, with a steering wheel. For some reason it makes you think of old men in silly hats. [6 coins]
(( OOC: Don't forget to submit your orders for any threads that aren't with the Alchemist or Garfield! The Alchemist and Garfield both have "office hours" now so feel free to reach out to them. The compact functions have also been updated and don't forget activity check!
This week is where the real game begins, so get in your regains and CR while you can. >:3 ))

My mom... well, rain and lightning probably have more constructive uses than controlling fire does. Everyone said she was "a danger to herself and others." Maybe if Batman was more like Bruce Wayne... she'd be somewhere they could have helped her. Even if it was just a rich guy paying for it out of pity.
no subject
[There was medicine that could repress it? Or just help her in other ways? Bruno wonders if something like that could've done any good for him or Pepa, or Dolores.
...it probably wouldn't have mattered. If you're a Madrigal, you're supposed to use your gift.]
Probably could've helped people out, if she got the chance. Pretty much any gift can be useful for the community, it's just...a matter of figuring out how.
no subject
[ Well, the meds didn't control the powers, but... she doesn't feel like going into the mental illness. ]
But... it's too late now.
no subject
...I'm sorry.
no subject
[ This part of the discussion, at least, she's gotten used to. ]
... Sorry, I didn't mean to come in here while you weren't feeling great and unload all of that.
no subject
I'm fine. [he is not] I mean, this is old news, it's not even really worth...not really worth talking about.
[........Olive's one of the few people who has a little more context for that argument, though. Bruno thinks that over for a moment. A few of the things the Alchemist said weren't entirely incorrect, but the way he put it all...he can't just let that stand.]
She didn't...drive me into the walls. She was angrier than anybody, when I left, she didn't...want that.
[Though Bruno can't help but think, sometimes, about how much more smoothly the family seems to run without him there. Though he's not sure now if he'd be welcomed back.]
no subject
[ She may be young but like. She knows that! She's found that out by now! ... Though her natural slight distrust of Certain Adults has her a little "hm" about who this woman was angry about. But surely that's just her. ]
That... sounds rough. No matter what happened. Don't listen to the idiot in the bird mask.
no subject
He must have been listening to the stories in the village, if he thought I'd want her gone. No matter what happened.
[Maybe he is afraid to face her again. Maybe he already knows what she thinks about him. That doesn't mean she should die. Oh, but he's sure none of the villagers would be surprised, if he were to act like some kind of malicious phantom, returning after ten years to strike the family down...]
no subject
There you go. That's just stories. Not you, or her. But still, you don't deserve what they say about you.
no subject
They've been talking like that since I was a kid. Sounds like it's just gotten worse since I left - must've added some kind of mystique, disappearing in the middle of the night like that. You're not really supposed to talk about me in the house, but my older nephew, he tells stories like I do, so I still hear some of it. Once he scared Antonio so bad with that he cried.
